I think we will see a hybrid of sorts for this kind of thing. A self-driving truck with an actual person in it. That person can sort packages and keep things straight while the truck drives to the locations then the driver hops out and delivers the package.
Of course, robots that deliver could be the future, but there are just way too many variables for them to happen any time soon.
That said, I think in the next 20 years we will see a massive increase in robots/AI/automation with many people losing their jobs.
